    The best 6'1 white HS basketball dunker that I have ever seen

    This kid is going to Georgetown where's going to be the first white American basketball player there in forever. He broke all of Allen Iverson's scoring records in Virginia, although he played at a really small HS in the Appalachian Mountains. He wasn't even ranked in the top 200 of Class of 2018t. I thought i'd share because I've never seen someone that looks like him do what he does on the court. There's a better video here, but I can't link it:

    Yeah, he's not that quick, but he does have alot of skills. Seventh Woods had a great mixtape when he was a freshmen in HS but he's done nothing in college at North Carolina so far. This kid though, you just don't see white players of his height and his build doing what he does. I've never seen it to be honest. I'm sure there are white kids around his height that can do similar dunks, but most just do dunks. They aren't good enough players to get D1 scholarships. I'm surprised he went to Georgetown because all eyes are gonna be on him.

    This highlight tape of his senior year is incredible. He's like a shorter Westbrook or Baron Davis. Baron Davis was a bulky guard that could throw down some dunks, but not like this dude.

    Sam Dekker had some pretty incredible athleticism, but he pretty much sucks in the NBA.

    Georgetown very long odds to win it but can that guy make a show of it if they get into the tourney?
